Love Poem: The Redwood 1985

The Redwood 1985

You are tall and strong

my love

Like the ancient redwoods

among the trees              of the forest

Living     tender         and green

filled with the           sap of life

Your shadow        wherein I stand

does protect                 from the heat of life

Let me dwell under                 your branches

my love

draw from your vigor

take my nourishment from your

covering boughs

let me lie            beneath your

towering arms

Allow please me to draw

from the power               of your stability

among the trees      of the forest

my love

Protect me from the showers

the rain , snow , and droughts

of life

Let me look upon you              with respect

and admiration

You are outstanding

among the trees of the forest

my love
